This couch potato hasn’t been posting much lately because, as you MIGHT have noticed on my Instagram/Snapchat/Twitter/Facebook/everywhere, I spent the last few days at Rock Werchter festival! My squad and I had booked our 4-day tickets months and months ahead, so during the last few study weeks we couldn’t WAIT to start to our…

A mini insider’s guide to Antwerp

Holla! Since many of you regularly contact me asking for secret hotspots in Antwerp, I’m taking you on a mini trip through my city today! We’re skipping the obvious must-sees like Groenplaats, Nationalestraat and MAS Museum and will dig more into places where a local would rather spend its free (tourist-less) time. Oh yeah, and that…

Having a brother with a practiced eye, mad photographer skills and of course some bad ass equipment comes in prettyhandy when you’re in need of some quick outfit pictures.

Luscious lashes
Beauty

This “I woke up like this”-thing just reached a whole new level! Many of you have asked me on Instagram or Twitter about what mascara I have been using lately, but the truth is… None! Two weeks ago a friend asked me to get a lash treatment together. She sent me a pic of her lashes looking…

Longing for festival season

Ahw yeah, festival season is upon us! For me summer is not complete without attending any festivals, which means that I’ve got most of my tickets in the pocket since January already.

The view from the afternoon

Woah, although I was super thrilled to show you these pictures when we had just shot them, I somehow completely forgot to post them! Marijs and I were about to stop by a press event when we passed by this beautiful green corner with beautiful light embracing the trees. This is definitely a spot where I should…

He was a sk8er boi, she said see you later boy… The number one lyric us nineties children all know by heart as soon as we hear the first notes of that famous guitar riff! Sk8er Boi was probably one of my fave songs ever in my teens (aaaafter Complicated, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day and I Miss You by Blink 182)…

The darling buds of may
Style

Net zoals mijn vriend Shakespeare kan ik wel een boom of twee in bloei appreciëren. Naast zijn liefde voor roze, ben ik ook grote fan van zijn sense of fashion! Voor de gelegenheid haalde ik dus mijn meest romantische Romeo & Juliet-geïnspireerd hemd boven en dartelde ik dramatisch onder deze prachtige kersenbloesems! Klinkt Globe Theatre-worthy, toch?…

Today’s post is all about elegance, quality and delicacy. Something us classy girls are always after, am I right? A little while ago I was approached by Belgian jewellery designer Hanne Schoofs, a young lady with a passion for handcrafted jewels with a playful accent. She is specialized in the most symbolic and special pieces of…

Because I’m having a hella boring week and surprising someone is a LOT more fun than writing a thesis, I decided to share some happiness with you today! First things first: this happy outfit! My first suit that I talked about recently entirely won me over to the ladies-dressing-like-men’s department, but instead of going for a neutral…

H&M Conscious Collection: that skirt!

Uh oh… I already have so many reasons to be envious of the drop dead gorgeous and extremely charming Olivia Wilde, and yesterday evening I found yet another one. The lady did not only contribute to a beautiful sustainable collection by H&M Conscious Exclusive, she also got to wear the most prominent piece of it: this…

New in: Sacha kicks

What girl can resist a good pair of shoes? Especially if they are white, sneaker-shaped and have a touch of copper, am I right? These stunning babies from Sacha‘s new est. 1909 sneaker collection have joined my shoe family only recently but they have been glued to my feet ever since. Yes, they are obviously inspired on the…

Last snow and that blue scarf again
Style

One last post full of snow! After a few days of pointlessly waiting for some sunshine I decided to go out anyway and take some pictures in between two snowstorms. The fun thing with shooting outfits on ski holidays is that it doesn’t even matter where you snap the photos because the white surroundings just…

Snow hobo

The irony: posting my most snowy pictures of the year on the warmest 2015 spring day so far! Although I’m a huge fan of this super warm Zara knit that I picked up in sale back in January, by now I’m hoping to carefully store it away until next winter. As Nelly Furtado once wisely…

Not a morning person

This greasy-haired, tired-faced and utterly busy Sméagol barely survived the weekend, as the time unfortunately has come to, on top of every other day of the week, sacrifice my Saturdays as well to work for university. Oh, hello bachelor paper! I’m still doing all of my research but some of my classmates have already started…
